Blue Spring State Park is located in central Florida. The spring run goes into the St. Johns river. The park provides cabins, camp grounds, seasonal swimming, hiking and bike trails. Kayak/canoe rentals and launch are available.

My Report:

The club trip was from February 25-28, 2013 with 37 participants. The first paddle on Tuesday was cancelled because or rainy weather. However, 12 paddlers braved the weather for an exploratory paddle of the St. Johns River. Wednesday was a beautiful day for a paddle to Hontoon Island. Two groups were formed, the first paddled the long route through the snake river. The second did the short route up the St. Johns to Hontoon Island. We all had a picnic lunch on the island and returned.
